Your Secretary is getting tired of posting this, but I will do it one more time. I would be happy to host the Board meeting at my home in Oakland. I am 1 mile from the Seminary exit of I-580. I have the space for about 8 people plus there is room for others to stand. Some of you stated that you wanted the meeting before the tour. It does not matter to me. What matters is that we need to have this meeting or the frag swap will be a disaster.

There are quite a few members who have expressed their interest, but don't know where they would fit in. So, come to the board meeting. I bet our board members can find a place where you will fit in. I took over the position as secretary in 2013. It is not a demanding position and I feel that I help at least in keeping the minutes and keeping track of events, board meetings, etc.. Anybody could do this job. I also hold this position with a larger 501 c(3) whose board holds eight hour meetings twice a year.

Think about what you have done in the past or the present. There are so many areas to work in. Just give one a try. If it works, great! If not, select another position to try. But, in any case, please help. Without volunteers, this club will fold and then you will have to travel to someplace distant to another club and they are probably in the same position. Let's keep this club alive. It doesn't take that much energy to do some of the things that we do. Just a little time and PLANNING on your part.

I am now off my soapbox. It is all up to you.

Thanks for listening.

OK....I will try to make it. I have a commitment first thing in the morning and since Oakland is the opposite direction for me, I will therefore need to leave quite a bit earlier than I had planned. Shoot me a PM with your address.

This meeting is not going to happen. Was considering trying to get to neptunes an hour early, but I think we should postpone for a week or so and try to get more people to attend. My wife is sick and I don't think I can make he tour tomorrow.
